CVE-2026-98880In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs3: handle set_blocksize failures
ntfs3 uses buffer_heads, which don't handle block size > PAGE_SIZE...
Executive summaryThe advisory describes a fix in the Linux kernel's ntfs3 filesystem driver, which could hit a kernel bug check when mounting certain NTFS volumes because block size failures were not handled. The advisory does not state a severity rating. The fix checks for set_blocksize failures and returns an error instead of continuing, and the advisory does not describe any other vendor recommendation. Technical summaryThe flaw is a missing error check in the ntfs3 driver when setting the block size during mount, which can trigger a BUG_ON in folio_set_bh on the first __bread_gfp call, because buffer_heads do not handle block sizes larger than PAGE_SIZE. The patch makes the driver return -EINVAL when sb_set_blocksize fails, both on the primary boot read path and the alternative boot path. Attack vector and preconditions beyond mounting a crafted or affected volume are not stated. Affected and fixed kernel versions are not stated, and no CVSS score is given. No workaround or detection guidance is stated. Summaries are generated by AI from the linked advisory text. Confirm versions and fixes at the source.
